Marina Zerbarini

Tejijo de la Memoria

It was a “work in progress”, that incorporates writings supplied by users, making the contents constantly dynamic.
It is developed the concept of time in subjects like Human rights, Poverty and Social Inequality, War and Memory.
The user interacts choosing between graphs, statistics, images and videos his reading time and the relation between them.
A memory that can be read ” by heart” or like a “weave” that constructs and reconstructs.

Tejido de Memoria – Net.Art 2003 – Obra Interactiva para Internet
Participante en el Festival Ciberart- Bilbao. 2004, Jurados:: Antonio Cerveira Pinto y Laura Baigorri Bilbao 2004.
Es un “work in progress” concebido para internet. A través de cuatro pantallas movibles horizontalmente, se integran interactivamente, gráficos, estadísticas, textos, videos, sonidos. El
visitante se comunica con “Valentina”, y posteriormente su texto es volcado dinámicamente en el sitio.
Ante la uniformización e indiferenciación numérica marcada por la tecnología, Tejido intenta reelaborar dinámicamente una memoria e identidad social y colectiva de la Argentina de los últimos 25 años.
Una memoria que puede leerse “de memoria” o como un tejido que construye y reconstruye nuestro Presente.
